Shut the Front Door Sloppy Joes
Hey folks! I remember way back in the day when Mama would serve Sloppy Joes and snag major brownie points with our family. My sisters and I thought it was a special treat.

If ever we needed to celebrate the Light of the World coming into our darkness, it’s Christmas 2020! Right? What’s that? I’m having a hard time hearing you over the amen corner. I get it!
